Mentorship Works

Mentorship Works is a startup non-profit that provides simple tools and on-line resources to match mentors and mentees in the greater Santa Barbara entrepreneur and startup community. The organizations facilitates the important mentorship process for an individual. Any successful executive has received valuable mentorship at some point in their career. The best continue to receive mentorship even after achieving significant levels of success. Today’s budding entrepreneurs are missing an important gap between a slowly evolving educational system and the need for startups and economic stimulation.

Angel Investors – Quantified Fund

Seed Capital for companies worth the investment

Today’s angel investors are more savvy than ever. Not long ago, due diligence was conducted through a detailed analysis and survey conducted with the entrepreneur. Today, Noospheric believes true due diligence requires working in the company environment for at least a few months. Our investment model requires at least 3 months of coaching and/or consulting before we make a capital investment. This ensures that we have explored all facets of the business opportunity and more importantly that we have analyzed the potential of the management team – something that is almost impossible to find on paper.
